blogger of the moment

by Karen Blanchard
5 November 2009

Dress: Modcloth. Boots: ACNE. Cardigan: Vince. Bag: Thrift DIY studded. Hat: H&M. Leather Jacket: All Saints
Waahhh wahh wahhh wahhh wahhhh.
That’s what I heard in my head when I received an email from Modcloth asking to not only interview me as their Blogger of the Moment, but name a bloody dress after me? I mean wtf?! Wait till Mum here’s about this. I was so chuffed. The only thing that’s ever been named after me is….erm nothing.
The interview is here and I’m wearing the dress in this post (it’s here on their site). The pictures above were taken while out in the cow’s ass. Nickname for going out to the country. (Paula – yes yes yes you get the credit for that line).
Don’t ask why I wore the ACNEs to the country. The locals probably spat out the wine they were tasting when I stomped in. Speaking of which, they now fit after the cobbler stretched them twice!

    Everything looks so great, Karen! I love all the bright colors. A dress named after you! (There’s a product that I “modeled” for.) So cool and it looks adorable on you. The shoes work well with the outfit in any situation! hehe
